Care to share more? I have a pixel 3a and have been looking at Lineage. I understand eOS is the same as Graphene, unsupported, yes? Have you run anything else?
Had been on Calyx for a while, must say /e/ was definitely a better experience, haven’t tried anything else besides that
I think /e/ is forked from either Graphene or Lineage (not sure which one) but comes with a full FOSS suite of replacement apps that integrate with the Murena online services (can also use a regular Nextcloud instance)
It’a neat and tightly integrated out-of-the-box, worked really well on the 3a, but most apps sorta fell behind in terms of features in the long run compared to traditional FOSS apps, might also be due to lack of updates since the device is considered EOL
I’m looking into getting a Fairphone with iodéOS next, since my 3a doesn’t recieve updates anymore and the phone’s been agonizing from all the traveling haha
I wanted to give Lineage a try, but I went traveling last July and installing a new ROM abroad really didn’t sound like a good idea, despite the EOL on my current ROM 😅
It’s really a shame that the /e/ ROMs don’t at least integrate the system patches from upstream, since they are indeed based on Lineage (just checked now), and Lineage still supports the Pixel 3a
I guess it might have to do with upkeeping their fork of the Lineage software, or their own launcher being incompatible with modern versions of Lineage

Thanks for sharing. I might try to hop on Calyx while it lasts and then do Lineage. I tend to keep phones for awhile, but now is different than then…
